Mono is broken.

So, I haven't been on YR or OpenRA until now in which I'm making a new campaign pack completely from scratch. But seeing as I'm here now, I thoguht I'd address a problem with my already corrupt(?) computer.

My mono... is broken.

Surprised

I know, I know, You're all freaking out by this, but before you get too mad at me, let me explain: I've been wanting to try to use mono in a couple situations, such as building a developer copy of OpenRA, but then when I try to make the program itself, this happens:

Code:

steamsdev@latitude-e4310:~/build/OpenRA$ make
Mono is not installed. Please install mono from www.mono-project.com/download/ before building OpenRA
Makefile:249: recipe for target 'fixheader.exe' failed
make: *** [fixheader.exe] Error 1

But there's one problem: my mono is installed. Proof of that was also obtained from the terminal:

Code:

steamsdev@latitude-e4310:~$ mono --version
Mono JIT compiler version 5.0.1.1 (2017-02/5077205 Thu May 25 09:19:18 UTC 2017)

TLS: __thread
SIGSEGV: altstack
Notifications: epoll
Architecture: amd64
Disabled: none
Misc: softdebug
LLVM: supported, not enabled.
GC: sgen (concurrent by default)

So, I don't know. I'd love your input on this.

I changed the title of this topic so that it had less to do with YR. If one of the admins could move this to where it is fit, that would be much appreciated.

What I tend to do on new Linux installs is to install an OpenRA release first, allowing the package manager itself to set up the dependencies and only thenafter I start selfcompiling and setting up my dev environment. I'm doing this mainly because installing the right Lua version manually is a PITA, though.

Never seen issues with fixheader myself. Which version of OpenRA and Linux distribution is this?

I realize this thread is rather old now, but for future reference this will happen if you have the mono runtime installed but not the mono development tools. Installing the mono-devel package (or the equivalent for your distro) should fix this.
